Jeesh, the Penguins have been playing AMAZING hockey for the season thus far. Before the season they were picked to finish in the bottom four overall. However ESPN put out their first power rankings of the season last week at the Pens were #7 overall and they were second in the Eastern Conference.
Last night they pulled out a 4-3 win in OT to regain first place. Evgeni Malkin has 7 goals in 6 games and has scored a goal in each of his first 6 games which is a record in the modern era NHL for a rookie. The last time someone scored in their frist 6 games was 1917. Amazing! HA!

Dude, the Penguins are going to destroy lives. I've never been so excited for hockey to start in all my life.
First off the Collevtive Bargining Agreement is a perfect fit for the NHL. The smaller market teams in the NHL now have a chance to compete with bigger markets in getting talent which makes things much more fair. No longer will money make the team, but teamwork and style will have a bigger impact.
Then to top it off, we get some sweet free agents and draft picks.
Sidney Crosby, Marc Andre Flurey, Evgeni Malkin, Zigmund Palffy, Andre Roy, Mark "the wrecking ball"Recchi, Sergei Gonchar and Jocelyn Thibault. Oh I'm geekin out! WOOOO!
Bye

iTunes is awesome. Especially when people at work drink more Mt. Dew in a day than they take breaths. They give me the caps that win free songs. I downloaded a whole lot of stuff. Over twenty free songs in the past two days. Sheer awesomeness. My palm itches. I'm gonna go itch it now.
...ok I am back... later peeps!

Man-o-man am I ever so tired. This whole day light savings time change really screws me up. It's only Tuesday and I feel like it's Friday, but I felt like that yesterday too. However, on the upside, it's been so beautiful outside. I love the warm summerlike air. I woke up later than I expected this morning. Only had like twenty minutes to get ready for work. Which almost put a hinder on my getting into shape/saving money by not driving to work cause gas is expensive. I biked to work again today. I love it. I've been doing more running, biking and lifting lately. I feel tons better, and I feel like I'm getting back into shape. I hope the weather stays nice. Cause I wanna keep riding my bike and such. Ciao.

Came across this today and I thought it was amazing and I wanted to share it with ya'll!
Acting Out the Purposes of God by John Fischer
Chances are you’re not going to have an armed murder suspect who has just allegedly killed four people force you into your house and tie you up today at gun-point, but a 26-year-old single mom had that happen to her, and she behaved in a manner that could only be described as empowered by the Spirit of God. She calmly talked her captor into untying her so she could fix him breakfast and read to him from the Bible and from The Purpose Driven Life.
“You got out of that courthouse with police everywhere, and you don’t think that’s a miracle?” she told him. “You don’t think you’re supposed to be sitting right here in front of me… Your miracle could be that you need to be caught for this. If you go to prison, then you need to share the word of God with all the prisoners there.”
Would you have thought of that? Would you have thought that being tied up at gun-point by a convicted rapist and murderer was a part of God’s purpose for you and for him? I can’t say I would have reacted like that. But then again, if we are living a purpose-driven life, wouldn’t that be true of everything that happens to us? This woman chose to believe it, and what a time she picked to act!
There is a good chance you are going through something right now that seems a long way from the purposes of God. Well look at this situation and reconsider. Here’s a woman who assumed it was no accident that this happened to her. She could have freaked out or she could have assumed God was in it and treated it as destiny. This woman didn’t just believe; she acted on her belief.
I think we can all take some courage from this today. I know I have issues in my life that I have come to think of as somehow exempt from the purposes of God. Perhaps there’s another way to look at it. Ask yourself if there might be a purpose God has in what you are going through; and then ask God to show you what it is. His purposes begin to show up as we believe increasingly that we have an accident-free God and act accordingly. This single mom seemed to gain courage as she went along. That’s the courage that comes from finding out, as you go, that God is empowering you to fit into His plan for the universe -- for you and for those around you.

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky
and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
